Newly unsealed Department of Justice documents reveal that in July 2006, then businessman Donald Trump was one of the first to call police to warn them about sex predator Jeffrey Epstein.
The documents include a previously unreported 2019 FBI interview summary with former Palm Beach police chief Michael Reiter. Trump had contacted the department shortly after reports of Epstein’s criminal sex investigation became public.
The future president contacted Reiter to express relief that authorities were finally acting, suggesting his associates in New York had described Epstein’s behaviors as “disgusting,” and advised investigators to focus on Ghislaine Maxwell, whom he described as “evil.”
The Miami Herald first reported on the development.
The first mention of Trump in the FBI interview summary notes that he told investigators that he “threw Epstein out” of Mar-a-Lago, something he has maintained consistently over the years.
“Thank goodness you’re stopping him, everyone has known he’s been doing this,” Trump reportedly told the Palm Beach Police Department.
“TRUMP told him people in New York knew EPSTEIN was disgusting. TRUMP said MAXWELL was EPSTEIN’s operative, ‘she is evil and to focus on her,’ the report continues.
The president also noted that he had witnessed Epstein in the presence of teenagers and was apparently dismayed by what he saw and “got the hell out of there.”
Obviously President Trump wasn’t guilty of the accusations. If he was, he would never have reported what he saw going on. All the people sick with that Trump Derangement Syndrome have been proven wrong again.
